Sengso Circle 5x5 Solve

[@michael_soria]

Man. The 5x5 series are so much easier than the 4x4 series. I did both 5x5 v4 and v2 in one night. But the 4x4 v2 and v3 took weeks and many restarts. But thank you. Because of you I have been able to complete the whole sengso crazy cube set. I really like these crazy cubes. Even the MF8 4x4. Thank you. 🎉❤

Your circle collection has expanded greatly.

I've been watching your videos since before I got married and now my son is in 2nd grade and watching your videos to help him solve some of our weird puzzles. I don't comment much but I still watch all your videos. Always solid refreshers on logical processing for larger or trickier puzzles even if I don't own the one you're solving! Thanks again for the ongoing education. 😁

[@SuperAntoniovivaldi]

Thanks so much, aawilma, that really makes my day. There is nothing more satisfying then passing something you really enjoy on to your kids to see similar joy. Happy solving to you and your family :)

Nobody else really covers puzzles like he does.

we need a new collection video dude

I got the 5x5x5 v4 yesterday, and it was actually a lot easier than I had hoped/expected. No algorithms needed, was able to do it intuitively. It's still fun, though! Going to try the 4x4x4 v3 tomorrow. I'm expecting that one to be more of a challenge.

[@Eliminator5555]

I'm really struggling to solve this intuitively. I know how to solve all eight of the 3x3 crazy planet cubes. So, I didn't think this would so difficult.

[@LukeLane1984]

​@@Eliminator5555 I've made several attempts to explain how I do it, but I keep running into the problem of how to explain how I visualize the puzzle and relate that to the physical puzzle. I think what Superantoniovivaldi is explaining from 5:50 to 10:30 is basically how I also visualize the puzzle. So maybe watch that part again and it'll start to make more sense. My own solving method is different, though, for the "inner, edges-only 3x3x3", and the "5x5x5 super cube center edges". (this is also where I struggle to explain, because I can't show you which pieces I'm referring to). Wish I could do more to help. I could provide algorithms that might help, but it could also make it even more confusing because it's not obvious how they translate to this puzzle. It's a weird puzzle within a puzzle, disguised as another puzzle, that's what makes it so confusing and hard to explain. But I'm sure if you keep at it and change your perspective, it'll start to click in your brain, and you'll get it. If have any specific questions, I'm happy to try to answer if I can. Good luck!

[@Eliminator5555]

@@LukeLane1984 Thanks for the advice. I think I still have the solution guide that originally came with the puzzle. I just thought that since I had learned all eight crazy 3x3 puzzles, that I'd then be able to solve it without needing a guide. But that's definitely not the case, at least not yet. I'm going to use your advice and continue to work on it sometime in the next few days. Thanks again.

👍Cool review. I really like crazy cubes. Thanks👍

[@MahipalSingh-nv1bq]

Loved watching this solve ❤

[@SuperAntoniovivaldi]

Thanks MahipalSingh, and I loved sharing it :)

[@michael_soria]

Great review. Do you have a solve on the shengshou crazy 5x5 v2. I am stuck. Thanks.

[@aalacoume813]

Very interesting as always. I have to admit that i have still not accepted these stickerless puzzles but the challenge seems very fun

[@SuperAntoniovivaldi]

I agree with you. My heart will always belong to black and stickered with completely squared and non pillowed sides. But sometimes we choose function over aesthetics...

[@Eliminator5555]

​@@SuperAntoniovivaldiI love stickerless for both looks and utility. But to each their own.

Boa noite meu amigo , onde voçê está , sou do Brasil , parabens e forte abraço .

[@rubikonde767]

I have a problem, I also thought that by having the crazy circles type "0" the cross on one side would be made as easy as you have done, but that is not the case, in my case some pieces have been moved and for example, I build the small green cross and on the opposite side I have a blue line, correct, and the other two pieces are, one yellow and one white, or two pieces of the orange cross are in the same orbit. And there I am stuck. I understand the rest of your resolution, but I don't know how to get out of this problem. And therefore when I finish, to use your example, the green 3x3, the blue 3x3 is not completed. I would appreciate your help or comment.

[@ludwigrohrig]

I have the same problem, and I don't even understand how it happened.

[@rubikonde767]

@@ludwigrohrig It is a real possibility, I know other colleagues with the same problem, I don't know why SuperAntonioVivaldi, the teacher, has not dealt with this first challenge or problem.

[@SuperAntoniovivaldi]

Hmm, thats an interesting pattern that I've not come across. I think what may have happened is that the center may have turned with a face turn a few times leading to this. Do you have a picture of your dilemma?

[@ludwigrohrig]

@@SuperAntoniovivaldi I do, what would be the best way to sent it to you?

[@NewsWeeks]

I just got this puzzle and encountered the same problem. Did you ever find a solution?

[@sorcererMag]

Good morning! I am writing to you with the hope that you will help me solve the latest product MF8 Crazy Crystal Megaminx. I started laying it out like a Crystal Pyraminx cube and got to the point where I didn't know what to do with the inner petals. I found a tutorial on KZbin by KZbinr "zergosaur", unfortunately I don't understand it. The only thing I got out of it for myself was a tricycle that replaced the edge petals. I have absolutely no idea how to approach the petals at the corners. Best regards, I hope you will find some time to answer. I'm waiting for new tutorials on your channel.

[@SuperAntoniovivaldi]

Sure, your wish is my command. You can check out my latest video which sets out the overall strategy and perspective on the puzzle. The full solve is on its way soon. But to address your question on the corner centers, think of them as the outer edges of a circle megaminx. Solve them exactly the same way. Remember, on a circle megaminx, those same equivalent corner centers were really extensions of the outer edges on the circle megaminx. These are exactly the same thing on the circle crystal pyraminx, only the outer megaminx edges are hidden inside. The outer crystal pyraminx edges, however, are not the same as the hidden outer circle megaminx edges, so do NOT correlate with those corner centers on this puzzle, so you have to solve them independently, but just solve as you would the megaminx outer edges with the same algorithm.

[@sorcererMag]

@@SuperAntoniovivaldi Many thanks for the explanation and tutorial of this cube. I didn't have Crazy cubes before, so I didn't understand the rules of connecting the corners at all. Now, thanks to your tips, everything is clear.
